Quote from Red

Red: Hey there, Midge. Kitty, uh, insisted I bring this over to show our sorrow because of your loss.
Bob: Aw, thanks, Red. We were all sittin' around reminiscing about our dear departed cat, Mr. Bonkers J. Pinciotti.
Midge: Do you have a story you want to share, Red?
Bob: We'd sure appreciate it, seeing as how your son killed him.
Red: Okay. Well, I remember he used to come into my yard and, uh... And, uh... You know, I'd throw a bucket at him, or spray him with a hose, and he'd run away. Then he'd come back. I'd do it again. I guess you... You could say we kinda had our own thing. Wow. [clears throat] Well... Okay. Enjoy the casserole. [exits]
Bob: We set up a Mr. Bonkers memorial slide show in the other room.

Quote from Jackie

Kelso: All right. Jackie, I've done some terrible and stupid things. Too many to even list.
Hyde: Oh, hey, give it a shit, man. I'll fill in the blanks.
Donna: Hyde.
Kelso: All right, but I'm done making excuses. And all I can say is... Is that I'm sorry and I love you. And I will do whatever I can, every day from now on, so that you know that's true. So, will you please, please, please take me back?
Jackie: Oh, Michael. No.
Kelso: No...
Jackie: No, you know what? We're through. Forever.
Hyde: Whoa. Didn't see that comin'.
Kelso: Fine. [exits]
Jackie: So, um... [sniffles] That... That was the smartest thing I've ever done. And, um... And the best. [squeals]
[As Jackie sobs, Eric and Donna stand up to console her. She walks straight past them...]
Jackie: Oh... Hyde.
Hyde: Why does she always come to me?

Quote from Donna

Donna: Hey, Mr. Bonkers. You nutty kitty. I'll be right home. Keep my bed warm, okay?
Eric: Hey. Keep your paws to yourself. She's my girlfriend.
Donna: So, what was your favorite part of the movie?
Eric: Uh, my favorite part of the movie was when we made out.
Donna: Yeah. Movies are fun.
Eric: Yeah. [they kiss]
Donna: Goodnight.

Quote from Eric

Donna: Looks pretty good, Mr. Clean.
Eric: Well, you know me. I'm... super neat.
Donna: Hey, you know, I can't find Mr. Bonkers anywhere. Have you seen him?
Eric: No! Uh, I mean... Well... Yeah, not since last night. Huh. Well...
[fantasy:]
Donna: Meow, meow, meow, meow. Killed. Meow, meow.
[reality:]
Eric: What?!
Donna: I said, it's weird. He always sleeps with me, but he never came home last night. Let me know if you see him, okay?
Eric: Oh... Sure thing. Will do. Okay.
Donna: Mr. Bonkers?
Eric: [to himself] Yeah, I'm goin' to hell.

Quote from Laurie

Hyde: So you didn't tell her?
Eric: I felt so guilty. I just... I couldn't.
Laurie: Is it because you're kinda glad it's dead?
Eric: No.

Quote from Eric

Eric: Excuse me. Dilemma here?
Kitty: Eric, this is not a dilemma. You have to tell Donna. Just be gentle, and maybe take her a nice little gift.
Laurie: Yeah, like a kitty-sized headstone.

Quote from Eric

Donna: How's it goin'?
Eric: Oh, pretty good. Except, I found this here kitten who told me he was looking for someone to love him.
Donna: Oh, my God! Oh, he's so cute. Thank you, Eric. That's so sweet. Oh, I hope Mr. Bonkers doesn't get jealous. Hi.
Eric: Yeah. I don't think that's gonna happen, Donna, because... I accidentally killed Mr. Bonkers. So, what are you gonna name this little fella here?
Donna: What? What are you talking about? I've had that cat since I was three. What happened?
Eric: Well... Last night, I was pulling in the car after our date...
Donna: After our date? Last night? Eric, I was looking for him, and I asked you. And you said you hadn't seen him. And you knew I was worried sick about him.
Eric: I know, Donna. That's why it was so hard to tell you.

Quote from Laurie

Kelso: I don't want to live with this lie anymore, because I only love Jackie.
Laurie: Okay. So, do you want to go up to my room and have sex?
Kelso: Uh... Sure! [chuckles] No, wait! No! No! Okay. I just... This... Laurie, I... I'm serious. We are over.
Laurie: Wow! I think you really mean it.
Kelso: I totally do.
[Laurie sees Jackie walk up outside the sliding door]
Laurie: Okay, Kelso, you're free. You know what I'd like, though? Just one last good-bye kiss?
Kelso: Um... Okay, well, sure. [they kiss]
Jackie: [enters] Michael!
Kelso: Jackie! We were... No! There was...
Laurie: Wow! How ironic, huh?

Quote from Eric

Eric: So... Uh... That casserole there is a seven-layer. Of course, uh, two of those layers are peas, and I really should've told you right away about your cat, but it's a pretty good casserole. There's ham in it.
Donna: Look, Eric, I know you didn't want to hurt me, and I understand that. It's just we've gotta be honest with each other. I mean, especially now that we've... You know... We've... You know? [Eric blushes] 'Cause I just don't want to end up like Jackie and Kelso.
Eric: No, no. I don't think we're gonna end up like Jackie and Kelso. I mean, I lied out of the goodness of my heart.
Donna: It's still a lie, Eric.
Eric: Yeah. You're right. I'm sorry, Donna, about everything.

Quote from Hyde

Jackie: So, really, breaking up with Michael could be the start of something great. I am a whole new Jackie.
Hyde: Really? 'Cause you're babbling like the old Jackie.
